Taoglas MA131 (Hercules) 2-in-1 Permanent Mount Antenna (GNSS & ISM 915 MHz)

Taoglas MA131 (Hercules) 2-in-1 Permanent Mount Antenna with GNSS & ISM 915 MHz

The Taoglas MA131 (Hercules) antenna is a GPS/Glonass/Galileo and ISM Band 915 MHz combination 2-in-1 high-performance solution for the most reliable asset tracking and remote monitoring. The integrated metal thread-mount allows for external use on vehicles and outdoor assets worldwide. The 915 MHz ISM Band antenna is ideally mounted on a ground-plane but works well also in free-space mounting conditions. The omnidirectional gain pattern, with a peak gain of 4dBi when using shorter cable lengths, ensures constant reception and transmission. This antenna has been optimized to work on both GPS/Galileo and Glonass bands, allowing the antenna to see the maximum amount of satellites in the sky, greatly improving tracking accuracy especially in built up areas, such as urban canyons where traditional GPS-only solutions struggle to maintain a lock driving around corners.

A front-end SAW filter attenuates any nearby out of band wireless transmissions so the GPS/Galileo LNA is not driven into compression or damaged. The compact size, IP65 rated enclosure and rugged polycarbonate construction can withstand direct attack and hazards such as tree-branches. The standard cable length and connector option is 200mm RG-316 and SMA (M). Maximum cable length should not go beyond 5 meters in order to maintain adequate antenna performance.
